Seems to me that an OpenOffice bug should at worst make OpenOffice close but not crash the whole device. I don't really have any idea where to start with debugging, but happy to follow instructions, or provide a file that produces the problem.
Which version of OO are you using? You now have the choice between 3.1 from qole's image, 3.2.0 from squeeze and 3.2.1 from sid. So you could try upgrading if you haven't done so yet (see the wiki for instructions).

And yes, please provide a file that produces a crash.

EDIT: Just saw that both squeeze and sid now have OO 3.2.1 (in different versions though).
